This is a great in-world historical podcast. I wish it updated more often.

This podcast is a must. What an outstanding piece of art! Shadowrun is a game with a very distinct feel, philosophy, and history. If those story sections of the handbooks aren’t quite getting you up to speed with the veteran players, I recommend this podcast. Already a veteran player? Great....Read full review »

Infotaining anarchy. Yes there is now such a thing. Bringing it to you from an appropriately reliably biased source that shines a light on dark events by telling the truth behind the reasons of the lies that shape a society is everyone’s favourite street info crow shaman fixer. Opti. Thank you so...Read full review »

Jenrynth via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/18
This show is a beloved part of the Shadowrun community. An in-character telling of the history of the Sixth World. Sounds boring, right? It's far from it as the old crow tells it to you straight in an entertaining way that keeps you looking forward to the next show!Read full review »
Vendetta Violent via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/20/17
Great content and really interesting. I've been binge listening since hearing a shoutout from The Arcology Podcast. However, the audio could use some work. Some parts are super loud while others are super quiet, so I've had to adjust the volume to hear everything without going deaf. The...Read full review »

Hoi Chummers! You wanted to know how and why the world turned out the way it is? Well, my omae, Opti, can teach you. I personally can assure you it's not that boring sanitized drek that they force feed you in school. He's got the paydata on the real history of the sixth world....Read full review »

If you have love Shadowrun for over 2 decades like I have, you may think that you know all about the setting and its infinite cast of interesting characters. You don't know drek Chummer.

Amazing podcast covering the lore and backstory of the Shadowrun universe.

Paranoia Is Underrated via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/25/15
I particularly like that he is going for a positive vibe with this. The podcast, though for fun, hints at deeper themes. Thanks for this!
Aaron D Schmidt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/17/15
Best drek on the matrix! Opti is a hoop licker from way back, he left me behind for Knight Errant to pick up on that Renraku job in '69. But he does seem to know his left from his right. He ain't no chummer of mine, but when I need to mainline a little awakened truth, he's the guy I...Read full review »

Absolutely fragging fantastic. Despite a sometimes less then prompt release of episodes, Opti manages to keep the content consistently strong and absorbing. Hope he keeps himself out of Aztec hands long enough to get to the 2070's.Read full review »

I'm fairly new to the Shadowrun setting and listening to Opti discuss the setting history in character gives a fantastic feel for how people in the Sixth World would react to what's happened.Read full review »

Great in character podcast that is full of useful information for anyone who wants to learn the history of Shadowrun. Awesome stuff!
The Zatman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/14
In any game of Shadowrun, you can't get very far without the setting, the story, or the characters the make up the infrastructure of your game. Given that Shadowrun offers over 25 years of continuously developing history, Opti does a great job of taking relevant pieces that not only has great...Read full review »

Opti kills it with this podcast. Filling you in with all the history and chaos that fills the sixth world. Essential for n00bs and oldheads alike. Seriously, I need more!
witera33it via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/13
This is a great in - character podcast for the history of the Shadowrun setting. Highest marks for bringing the Neo Anarchist vibe from the second and third editions of Shadowrun.

Opti makes sure all you chummers know your history. Young runners these days aren't taught about the Serentech Decision, or the Lone Eagle Incident... Listen to Opti, and get your drek together. In other words, whether you are a veteren Shadowrun player or coming in fresh, this podcast...Read full review »

My new favorite. Keep up the good work. Enjoy your freedom, but check the expiration date first.
HandsomeBaldMan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/14/13
I love this podcast. It's an overview of your Sixth World history: how it all began through the "present" - all done in-character. Opti does a fantastic job. Call me crazy, but I've also heard a number of nods to NPR in the show, which just makes my day a little better. :) ...Read full review »

If you are looking for something to give you the low down (and down low) of the history of the Shadowrun Universe this is the podcast!

Opti has it covered chummers. I think Art Bell was his great grandfather, and he has plenty of dark covered for the 6th world. It's worth playing as part of your background music during a game.Read full review »

Opti's podcast is a really great Shadowrun resource. For me as a shadowrun vet, I dig the insight into historical events from a different perspective.

Hello all, MaLarkey here to praise the work that Opti has done to bring the truth to the uninformed masses. Sure, you might have a crew, you might think your the big drek. Your wrong.
